Hi,
My name is Nikolas, I’m 10 years old and I live in Norway. I’m not exaggerating when I say I’ve been playing football for as long as I can remember. In fact, football has always been my favorite — and often only — form of play. I’ve been playing for SK Herd (Ålesund, Norway) since I was 6 years old. You can see most of my football journey on my social media (link above).
My first achievements came at the age of 8 when I was selected to join NF Academy in Oslo — the largest football academy in Norway, working in partnership with Sporting Lisbon (Portugal). At the age of 9 and 10, I also passed the performance tests to qualify for the Polish National Team by Polish Soccer Skills (PSS). With PSS, I’ve already participated in international trips to the Czech Republic, Germany, and Belgium.
Last year, I was also invited by the Norwegian academy NSU to join a tournament in Liverpool, England, and I took part in the Top Elite tournament in Poland with Apex Academy.
This summer, I’m planning to attend a one-week football camp in Ustronie Morskie (Poland), where after successful trials I will once again have a chance to be selected for the PSS National Team for 2026. Right after that, I will join another one-week camp in Nowy Targ with top coaches from the Polish national team. At the end of the summer, I also plan to attend a 5-day training camp with my favorite club — FC Barcelona. Joining the Barca Academy sessions will be a great opportunity to showcase my skills to their coaches. This year, I’ve also been invited once again to play with NF Academy in Oslo.
If you would like to support my development and help make these trips possible, I honestly don’t have much to offer in return — except my daily dedication and consistent hard work. I know these trips aren’t absolutely necessary, but for me they’re a huge motivation and an exciting break from my everyday training routine.
If you’d like to follow my journey, I invite you to check out my social media where I regularly post updates from my training sessions and matches (Instagram and TikTok links can be found above in the “Useful Links” section).
The total cost of my trips last year was around 60,000 PLN. This year, the costs will be lower, but still a significant challenge — so any support would be a valuable contribution toward my next adventures. Thank you! 😊
